Siby Jeyya of India Herald wrote, "Sabhaapathy is one of Santhanam's better films as a leading man."[3] Sudhir Srinivasan of The New Indian Express wrote, "Sabhaapathy, begins with the deep voice of a narrator who identifies himself as ‘vidhi’, claiming to ‘play’ with ‘innocent’ people like Sabhaapathy. I imagine that on the day I watched Sabhaapathy, Mr Vidhi had chosen me for his game."[4] Suganth of The Times of India gave a rating of 2.5 out on 5 and wrote, "Sabhaapathy is a middling affair. Like a dream that eludes you once you wake up, you forget it the moment you step out of the theatre."[5] Sify gave a rating of 2 out on 5 and wrote as "sabhaapathy is a below-average comedy entertainer that can be watched for the hilarious comedy combination between  Santhanam and the MS Baskar!" and the final verdict as "Tedious".[6] Ranjani krishnakumar of Film Companion wrote, "Sabhaapathy is a test of patience, even if you generally enjoy Santhanam's brand of humour."
